In this episode of Venture Ahead, we talk to Tanguy Audouin about his journey from building DIY electric skateboards as a teenager to launching a forward-facing micromobility product designed to solve real urban pain points. Built upon hundreds of street interviews and five major product iterations, his product, Glydz, has developed through direct user feedback.

We talk about what it really takes to bootstrap a hardware startup: from selling your car to fund prototypes to becoming your own lead engineer, learning through YouTube and factory floors, and having 300 conversations before feeling confident there's a true gap in the market.

Tanguy shares his story of starting a company from scratch, explaining how he's launching through Kickstarter, raising smart angel money and building a digital-native brand with a long-term vision for leasing and mass adoption.

This is a candid look at early-stage entrepreneurship, product design, resilience and what it means to turn passion into a scalable business.
